Hello, I suffer from severe cognitive impairment, loss of refreshing sleep, etc after coming off of SSRIs. I think some latent infection reactivated in my body and is causing hyperammonemia. I have done some tests, ANA was 1:640, Ammonia in blood was high (60 out of 60), infection testing hinted at mycoplasma and chlamydia spp. beeing active. I thought it could be a parasite too.
I thought, im going to try to get to a special hospital where they can do a lumbal puncture and test my CSF for bacterial infections with a culture, and test for other autoimmune brain diseases. Do you have any idea, how I can lower ammonia in the meanwhile? Or how I can find out what exactly is causing my ammonia issues? Maybe try to just hit it with antibiotics?
By the way, I also tested CD57 cells, which were low, just like in chronic lyme disease. Lyme was negative though.
I tried stuff like L-ornithine, sodium benzoate, which did not work (I think it is too weak) unfortunately. My cognitive symptoms are very much like those seen in lyme disease.
For any help I would be very thankful.
